Blowfish sounds familiar, but I can't recall if it's commonly used for secure data transfer in IoT applications.

Ah, this is a tricky one. I'm drawing a blank on the names, but I know it was an important discovery in the history of surgery and anesthesia. I'll have to make an educated guess on this one.

Okay, let's see here. I remember learning about the different multicast address prefixes, so I'll need to review those and see which one matches the options given.

I bet the dStephaineloper is still using carrier pigeons to transfer the data. Much more secure than the internet, you know.
